It’s no-win for Barack: Clintons marginalize him as black candidate
Boston Herald ^ | 1/26/08 | Michael Graham

Posted on 01/26/2008 4:32:28 AM PST by MartinaMisc

Well, the media finally got the negative, slash-and-burn, “dirty politics” South Carolina primary they’ve been looking for.

They just weren’t looking for it from the Democrats.

Remember how the national media flocked to South Carolina looking for campaign fliers accusing John McCain of having a drug-addicted illegitimate daughter with ties to al-Qaeda? Who knew she would turn out to be Michelle Obama?

The Clintons unloaded on Barack Obama down in South Carolina, running commercials so ridiculously untrue that even Bill Clinton couldn’t defend them. The Clintons were forced to pull their attack ads on Thursday.

But by then, it didn’t matter anymore. Obama had already lost.

I know, I know: Zogby has Obama up by 13 points, and SurveyUSA has him up by 16. How can the freshman senator from Illinois possibly lose?

He will lose by winning.

How?

Former Clintonista Dick Morris knows. He knows better than anyone alive how the HillBillys think, and he sees what I see. He’s figured out the brilliant if repulsive campaign strategy of the Clintons, and how they have turned South Carolina into their Venus Fly Trap. The Obama campaign will fly in, breathe deep the sweet smell of electoral success and then never escape.

In fact, it is possible Obama won’t win a single state after South Carolina. He could even lose his home state of Illinois.

"...It infuriates that— the Governor of Florida—Charlie “Krisp”—deems it necessary, to inform us, for whom, he cast his VERY IMPORTANT vote —A real class act!..."

The self-same 'Krisp-critter' who, once the RNC got him elected, co-opted with the dimocRATS in our beloved FLA, to dismantle the fraud-proof electronic voting machines that Jeb got in to STOP the dims from cheating.

Krisp is goin' back to 'paper' ballots, and the dims are already Xeroxing all the copies they'll need for November. What a bastard he is!

The electronic voting machines aren't even paid for yet, and they're worthless ................... FRegards, sweetie
